Answers:

There's not alot you can do. Lots of calcium is a good thing.
Stay away from Nsaids (anti-inflammitories) it helps if there's swelling, but also slows down the healing process. I've heard drinking alot of soda is bad too.
If the Dr gave you a walking cast, he wants you to walk on it. He should have given you instructions on how much weight to bear.
